'Dallas' is Looking for a Home

Editor’s Note: The following was submitted to Patch by Peaceful Paws Giant Dog Placement Services–a Phoenixville-based operation that endeavors to rescue, rehabilitate, and find permanent homes for large breed dogs in Pennsylvania, Maryland, New Jersey, and Delaware.

Dallas is a six-year-old, black, great dane with natural ears who's ready for adoption at Peaceful Paws Giant Dog Placement Services. Here's what he has to say:

Hi! I'm Dallas, and just like the city, I'm big, handsome and flashy! At 140 lbs, I've got a glossy black coat and a classic dane profile–my foster mom is always telling me how handsome I am and what a good boy I am.

I'm just about perfect in the house–I've got the run of the house when I'm alone and I always tell my mom when I need to go out and I never chew or mess anything up. I'm pretty low key, although I love a good romp in the yard several times a day or a short walk to sightsee. I love, love, love car rides. I think a roll in the grass and a nice tummy rub are the best part of my day. I've been meeting lots of people lately and they're pretty nice, although I do worry about men at first.

I'm a serious boy but happy when I'm home! With me, what you see is what you get–I'll tell you if I'm unhappy or if I want something, and you'll know when I'm sad or excited (like when I want a car ride!). Kids make me very nervous and I don't want anything to do with them. I love other dogs, though–my newest best buddy is a fluffy little Bischon who walks with me. Well, I finally met those cats mom's been talking about and I've decided....I don't like 'em. Not one bit. No cats for me. :-(

Dallas's ideal owners would be previous dog owners with a rather quiet home with no kids or cats. Dogs are fine. Interested in Dallas? Email info@peacefulpawsrescue.org or call 610-680-3814 (email is quickest!).
